| dc.description | This is the 5th edition of the ‘Guidelines for Prosecutors’. The Guidelines were first published in 2001 with the aim
of setting out in general terms principles to guide the initiation and conduct of prosecutions in Ireland. They
are intended to give general guidance to prosecutors so that a fair, reasoned, and consistent policy underlies the
prosecution process.
Article 30.3 of the Constitution of Ireland provides that all indictable crimes shall be prosecuted in the name
of the People. Making the guidelines available will further contribute to an increased understanding of the
prosecution process by the citizens on whose behalf prosecutions are brought.
The guidelines are available electronically on the Office website at www.dppireland.ie.
The Code of Ethics for Prosecutors in Chapter 3 is also available as a separate document on the website. | en |
